Abstract
Corynebacterium renale
strains which possessed numerous pili agglutinated trypsinized sheep erythrocytes, whereas those possessing only a few pili did not show such activity. By electron microscopy, the pili of
C. renale
adhered to the ghost of trypsinized sheep erythrocytes. After the treatment of
C. renale
with the homologous anti-pili serum, neither the agglutination of trypsinized sheep erythrocytes nor the adherence to the ghost by the pili were found. The adhesive property of the pili of
C. renale
was thus demonstrated.
